[Enteral feeding. New technics and feeding mixtures].
We tried to show, that feeding via intrajejunal tube with a chemically defined diet (CDD) is a procedure possible done in the early postoperative situation beginning with the 1st postoperative day. We investigated 20 patients after cholecystectomy - randomized into two groups (group I: CDD, group II: control; water - electrolyte - substitution via peripheral veins). It was proven, that the CDD - group tolerated the enteral feeding from the beginning very well. The N balance became positive on the 2nd postoperative day. Further investigations and results have to show if this form of tube feeding with a special diet may be a definite alternative to parenteral nutrition in patients after gastrointestinal surgery in the very early postoperative period.
